Meg Okura and the Pan Asian Chamber Jazz Ensemble: Naima
by Raul d'Gama Rose
John Coltrane's original recording of Naima" is extraordinarily beautiful, and it's possible that he never envisioned such a breathtaking version being played so many years after it had been composed.

Meg Okura: Naima
by Dan Bilawsky

Olivier Nussbaum: Naima
by AAJ Italy Staff
